"Nothing shared the first full image of its next wireless earbuds today. The design of the new Ear 3 earbuds and their charging case appear very similar to the Ear 2 that debuted in 2023, but Nothing has revealed that the case is now partly made of 100 percent recycled anodized aluminum. For the first time, the Ear 3's charging case will also feature a microphone called the Super Mic, and a dedicated "talk" button."
"The company says it's introducing metal components on the Ear 3 "for greater durability and a premium finish," and that it has "reengineered the metal antenna" in the earbuds to achieve an ultra-slim design. Unfortunately, details about what the charging case's microphone and talk button can be used for, as well as performance details about the new wireless earbuds, won't be revealed until September 18th, 2025 at 8AM ET."
"Over the past week Nothing has shared additional teaser images of the Ear 3 through its X account, but the close-up photos have only revealed fine design details so far. The talk button and microphone are interesting additions, but it's not known exactly how they'll be used. Will it just be for summoning a smart assistant, or will the Ear 3's charging case double as a wireless mic like those from DJI and Insta360?"
